J ---- P --- K
JP = 2x
PK = 7x
JK = 27
2x + 7x = 27
9x = 27
x = 27/9
x = 3
The value of P is 3.
JP = 2x = 2(3) = 6
PK = 7x = 7(3) = 21

Answer:
A overly complicated triangle.
Step-by-step explanation: Good luck...
The first integer is going to be x and the second one is going to be y.
We now turn the clues into equations:
x = y - 5
xy = 84
The substitution method:
(y - 5)y = 84
y^2 - 5y - 84 = 0
(y+7)(y-12) = 0
y = -7, 12.
If y = -7, then x = -12.
If y = 12, then x = 7
So based on the given problem above, it says that, for one batch with 3/4 cup of brown sugar can make 6 dozen big cookies. If we are to make 15 dozen cookies, what we need to do is to divide 3/4 cup of brown sugar by 6 dozen, and we get 0.125. This means that per dozen, it is equivalent to 0.125 cup of brown sugar. If we multiply it by 15 dozens, we get 1.875 cup or 1 and 7/8 cup of brown sugar. Hope this answer helps.
